Still life

then you better be living alone – i hope

Troy is delusional, no part of life wants anything to do with him.

He’d be one heck of a mouthful for those snapping jaws.

Well it doesn’t look like Troy stayed clear of the dining table.

Land Shark!

Troy must have been bitten or chewed on a few times by the jaws of life.

Troy is getting ready to start his podcast explaining how the government is after him and the moon landing was faked.

What’s your secret, Troy?

Life has a way of sneaking up on you and biting you on the rear.

How about the razor blade of life.

…And Scooter; and Ted; and Toby; and Warren; and Spike; and Stan; and Buster; and Mrs. Higglepooder; and…

‘Snapping Jaws of Life’ is a heck of a way to refer to his wife, Edna…

Troy needs to google “jaws of life”

Troy has to check his curbside mailbox, but his chatty neighbor Gladys is out there and she just doesn’t know when to shut up.

Good morning Balladeers!

It’s the snapping jaws of death you have to watch out for.

What, and not share his breathtaking coif with the neighborhood?

I find briefs better than boxers for protection if those jaws get in that area.

Lawn ’gators were not the good idea they first seemed to be. :)

The da-duh-da-duh-da-duh music never leaves Troy’s mind.

Ducks A$$ hair style with the big wave up front! Brings back fond memories of the 50’s!

♫♪"Life has a way of confusing us,

Blessing and bruising us.

Drink, l’chaim, to life!"♫♪

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son! Beware the jaws that bite, the claws that catch!”

Troy is a prime example of “Once bitten, twice shy.”
